The God Boy

Author:Ian Cross

Summary: Based on the classic New Zealand 1957 novel of the same name, this is the powerful and moving story of young Jimmy Sullivan. As an 11-year-old Jimmy believed he was 'a boy that God has his eye on'. That was until his parents' turbulent and unhappy marriage finally broke down with tragic consequences. A play that will rip at an audience's heart and soul, The God Boy's themes of the vulnerability of children and the inability of faith to compensate for betrayal are still all too familiar in today's society.
